This is a novel by Gong Ji-Young and Tsuji Hitonari, published in 2005. It is a romance novel written by a female Korean writer and a male Japanese writer, featuring a young Korean woman and a young Japanese man. The writers unravel the issue of ethnic conflict between Korea and Japan through relationship problems between a man and a woman. It is considered a work that reveals the potential for reconciliation and differences in perceptions of individuals, peoples, and nations on the theme of harmony and friendship between Korea and Japan by the two best-selling authors in Korea and Japan.

2005년 출간된 공지영과 츠지 히토나리의 장편소설이다. 한국의 여성 작가와 일본의 남성 작가가 한국과 일본의 젊은 남녀를 주인공으로 하여 창작한 연애 소설이다. 당시 한국과 일본의 민족적 갈등 문제를 두 남녀의 연애 문제로 풀어나가고 있다. 한일 양국의 베스트셀러 작가가 한일간의 화합과 한일의 우정을 주제로 하여 개인, 민족, 국가에 대한 인식의 차이와 화해의 가능성을 드러내는 작품으로 평가된다.
